Nokia Lumia 900

T-Mobile USA's Nokia Lumia 710 is now available free in the US, having already been something of a bargain at just $49.95 with a new agreement. Put on sale just last week, the 710 has already been discounted down to free-with-contract by Walmart, as carrier and retailers attempt to get as many sales in as they can before the AT&T Lumia 900 goes on sale.

CES 2012 has drawn to a close, and if you'd said twelve months ago that Nokia would leave the show having introduced one of the stand-out products, the industry would've laughed you out of Vegas. Sure enough, though, the AT&T Nokia Lumia 900 is on everyone's lips, delivering the slick style of the first Lumia 800 with the sort of big screen and capable camera dominating the smartphone market today. Rumors suggest it'll drop in March, but is Nokia ready to price the LTE Lumia to succeed?

The AT&T Nokia Lumia 900 will launch in March, according to Nokia's Developer Newsletter, which revealed the release schedule for the LTE Windows Phone despite both carrier and company staying mum about details this week at CES. "[Lumia 900] will become available exclusively through AT&T in March" the coder-targeted newsletter confirmed, far more specific than "the next few months" as Microsoft, Nokia and AT&T have committed to.

Nokia has confirmed that the Lumia 800 will be coming to the US as an unlocked, SIM-free device in February, with the T-Mobile Lumia 710 going up for order on January 11. Meanwhile, Canadian would-be Nokians will be able to grab the Lumia 710 on Rogers and the Lumia 800 on TELUS, though release dates haven't been confirmed. The Finns are hoping to differentiate themselves from their Windows Phone platform-pals, too, with news that a deal with Electronic Arts (EA) will see twenty of the "most popular" titles from the publisher brought to Windows Phone, launching initially as Lumia exclusives.

Earlier today Nokia and AT&T announced the first Windows Phone 7.5 Mango 4G LTE handset in the Lumia 900. Not only is this a carrier exclusive for AT&T but it's also their very first LTE handset with Windows Phone 7. Here at CES SlashGear was able to snap a few photos of this sleek and beautiful handset, and a quick video. Head down after the break for all the details and video.

Nokia has officially announced the Lumia 900, as expected, an AT&T exclusive in the US and using the carrier's 4G LTE network. Resembling an oversized Lumia 800, the Nokia Lumia 900 has a 4.3-inch AMOLED WVGA display and runs Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, complete with the Finnish company's custom Nokia Drive and Nokia Music apps for turn-by-turn directions and subscription-free streaming music.
